my w950i doesn't hang since i had its software updated. you should have your phone check..maybe all it needs is a software udating.

    hi. i think the time wherein you receive the message depends on the network service provider time and not on the phone's time...but that's only what i think...

        I have just ordered this phone (Delhi, INDIA) for INR 10780.00 I think this phone is much better than N91 withb 4/8 gb, though is doesnt have camera. But any one from India can tell me whether I am paying a good price or not?

          it is good but m600 is better than ht because m600 has qwerty keyboard

            i see some people complain about low volume, which precisely means low bass. It's because the low quality of shipped earphones in the box. I believe Sony Ericsson had purposedly reduced the quality of the earphones to, God forbid, keeps their profits high, and also to compensate for the production cost of the whopping 4 GB memory.

            As you can see, you can use any standard 3.5 mm jack earphones to plug into the handset. The shipped Sony Ericsson's earphones are crappy. I just threw it out of the window. I used my own music-dedicated earphones. So if you are really music freak, better get a decent earphones from Sony or Philips, may be costs around $ 20-30 then you can really appreciate the bass and the great walkman sound from this toy. Hope this info helps!

              i bought this phone just two days ago. everything works great. just for u to know, if you want to transfer hundreds of mp3 songs to this guy, you must use 'fast transfer mode' instead of 'normal mode'. I was amazed I transferred 100 tracks in just about 10 seconds!

              PROS :
              - Big Display, touch screen
              - 3G
              - Excellent built-in web browser
              - Whopping 4 Giga memory! internal too, so it is much more stable than any external memory card
              - Symbian UIQ 3, which lets you install add-ons apps
              - Excellent MP3 management, you must update your ID3 tag in your MP3, completing all the artists and tracks and albums info to appreciate the new Walkman v 2.0
              - Quite affordable nowadays, (around USD 240 without contract). May not stock last i guess, so if wanna get, better hurry

              CONS :
              - No camera (that is if you need one, I personally don't)
              - No office editor documents (important for me)
              - Doesn't support animated wallpaper
              - Video players can't play mpeg videos
              - Crappy earphones, no bass at all. I must use my own Philips earphone to plug into the included headset, then the bass really kicks in!

              All in all , I give it 8.5 / 10. It missed 1.5 due to crappy shipped earphones (really guys you should use your own decent music-dedicated earphones, go for brands like Sony or Philips).

                      I have it from about 1 mounth.I buy it new and unlocked from PhoneHouse for 200 euros and it's worth all the money and more.Very friendly menu with a lot of options.I am a Nokia fan but this phone for this price is takeing the control over Nokia phones.It's not important for me the camera missing.Were better if it had Wifi.

                                  Got 1 myself, sometimes sux not to hav a cam. And its not a phone for those wif limited time, like sending an sms while driveing. (not that any1 would do that....) And the cpu is a bit slow, etc. Id start typing an sms after clicking ''new mesg'' and it would type numbers insted of abc's , and u'll have to delete and start over.... If ur a music freak 4gig (actually 3.6) is gr8, earphone cables are retarted but giv gr8 base, its a gr8 phone for some, but stupid to others, i'm sure every1 will have their own opnion.

                                      I have this phone and it's okay...if your a big texter then this phone isn't for you as i found out the buttons are so difficult to press and you can't lock your messages!!! the onscreen keyboard is sometimes really fiddley aswell and it's a bit slow..overall it's good phone.

                                        u know what? even if they did include a 1.3 megapixel, it wud probly make the fone look bad comparing to the others... dont worry about the camera, this fone is a definite thumbs up!
